I am a Bowtie fan and am not angry with Chevrolet's support. Autism Speaks has money and good PR and puts on a good show. Chevrolet's decision makers doubtless believe they are doing a good.

We know better of course. Please email Chevrolet at the following address. Tell them politely and cogently why autistic people don't like Austim Speaks, why that organization does not speak with our voice. Thank you.

Hm. My family's Chevy Cobalt is about 94% Korean parts. I think whenever I am ready to buy a car, I will go for a good, American-built vehicle like a Honda or Toyota.

Oh Holy Cow! Thanks for data, Alex.

Why in this world do the baddies always win?

Another reason to keep my business with Toyota. Also, GM's business hasn't been doing well lately so it probably won't help Autsim Speaks for long.
